January is coming. The dark, cold season of Seasonal Depression is upon us. Its so easy to look out the window at 5am and opt to go back to bed under the covers and stay warm then bundle up and go to the gym. Its so easy to check the app, see your workout and think "maybe I'll just skip it today and do it tomorrow"...and that cycle is so very hard to break. We can only do so much to help keep you accountable. We can't force you to workout. We can't force you to swap the candy bar for an apple, and we can't force you to kick up the intensity to your training - the most we can do is our best to present you with the best information of how to move forward, create a caring and fun environment with people you WANT to be around and workout with - and make the workouts fun. When you're having a good time with your training, and you're seeing results, its much easier to continue down that path.
I'm happy to be the one to tell you that January and February aren't as long as they seem. Soon, the birds will be out, the flowers will be blooming, and the sun will be shining. The real question is - how will YOU look and feel when that happens? Will you still be wrapped in your cozy blanket watching repeats of various Netflix series on the couch or will you be ready for the Beach? Because before you know it, the sand will be between your toes and you're going to want to get that tan going - and you want to feel comfortable doing it.
